Sherman and Judith's Visit

Ryan’s parents have been visiting us for the last few days. It was great to have them here. Ryan picked them up last Wednesday night. After picking them up we all attended a dinner hosted by the LDS club on campus. It was a great dinner and fun for the parents to see the school and meet LDS alumni and students.

On Thursday Ryan brought his parents to class with him--they attended all three classes that day. Then on Friday, I had to go to work and Ryan took his parents to Concord. In Concord they explored the revolutionary war sites and visited Louisa Marie Alcott’s (author of Little Women) home.

Then on Saturday we went to the Boston Temple and to the Museum of Science. While visiting the Museum of Science we went to an Electricity Show, and watched a demonstration of lightning created by the world's largest air-insulated Van de Graaff generator. It was amazing to see the lighting that was created.

On Sunday we went to church and enjoyed a relaxing day at home. Then on Monday we enjoyed Candlepin Bowling and lunch at G’Vanni’s—a quaint restaurant in Little Italy. All in all we had a wonderful visit.



Next weekend Ryan and I are headed to Texas for an Oferee weekend. We are really excited to go and learn more about the company and living in Texas. It will be a great weekend. Then shortly after Texas we are head to Fort Lauderdale for our Caribbean Cruise. Let the good times roll!

Sounds like a good visit. Is there a chance you guys will be moving to texas after school? My sister lives there right now and loves it. We wish we were going on the cruise with you, we wanted to, but it was just too last min. when ryan told us about it. We should plan one for all the old boys to get together. Have fun on all your trips.
